Error while making 2.4.5 bzImage with CONFIG_MPENTIUMIII=y

Error while making 2.4.5 bzImage with CONFIG_MPENTIUMIII=y

[csani]

Hi,

This is the config file:

http://www.holanyi.hu/config

produced with make menuconfig on a vanilla tree;
and this is the log file:

http://www.holanyi.hu/bzImage.log

of the command:

time make dep clean bzImage modules moduels_install 2>&1 | tee bzImage.log

The errors do not occur if I switch on SMP. Howver, I would like to get out
the most of my PIII 500 and would not like to use SMP and would also like to
use APM stuff.
Is this a known problem with 2.4.5? Sorry if yes.
Anyway, I could not find relevant info in the archives of this list about
this issue.

Is there hope I will be able to compile a suitable kernel for this PIII?

Thanks

Csan

PS: Please Cc: me. However, I will be monitoring the archives, so I will
catch your mails. :)

Please read the FAQ at  http://www.tux.org/lkml/, in particular s8-8.

Thank you and Alan Cox for replying and helping.
Would it be a bad idea to incorporate the relevant part(s) of that FAQ into
(under) the kernel Documentation tree?
Would it be possible to have 'make' catch the error(s) causing an exit during
kernel compilation and display a message pointing to that file?
Such a feature would have made me feel less st*pid now ;)

Regs,

Csan
